After being listed as questionable for Thursday’s Game 3 matchup against the Golden State Warriors, Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis told the media that he will play when action tips off at Chase Center.

Sabonis suffered a chest contusion after being involved in a controversial play that ended with Warriors forward Draymond Green being ejected from Game 2 on Monday night.
